ITALIAN INTEREST: Juventus are looking at a shock move for Jack Wilshere [GETTY]

According to reports, the Serie A champions have talked to a number of agents based in the UK to see whether Arsenal would be open to doing a deal for Wilshere.

It is understood that the Old Lady are yet to make a bid or lodge their interest with the Gunners and are taking their time preparing a potential offer.

Arsene Wenger has rejected the tentative suggestions surrounding a move for the 22-year-old who is happy to remain with the club.

England international Wishere signed a five-year contract worth £80,000-a-week in December 2012 but Juventus are considering offering him a substantial increase to lure him to Turin if they can fetch £47m from Manchester United for Vidal.

The Red Devils have been desperately chasing the Chilean for the last month following his impressive form in Serie A and star turn at the World Cup.

Fresh reports in Italy this morning suggest that the midfielder has agreed personal terms to make the move to Old Trafford.

La Stampa claim that United's top brass have agreed a five-year £182,000-a-week contract with Vidal.
